CONNIE FRANCIS – ROCKSIDES (1957-64) TEST PRESSING 2-LP SET 1987.

Four-sided test pressing dated 10/14/1987
The number on the discs corresponds with the Polydor catalog number, 422-831 698-1

I bought this at Footlight Records in NYC in the late 1980s, and never played it. Now, I no longer have a turntable so I am unable to confirm what tracks are on this test pressing, and if they are in any way different from the 2 LP compilation that was released.

When I purchased this item, it was stored in the album sleeve, which I assume did not actually come with the test pressing. Here are the tracks listed on the sleeve. Each side of the test pressing also has 6 tracks.

A1        Eighteen
A2        Happy Days And Lonely Nights
A3        The Tiger And The Mouse
A4        No One To Cry To
A5        Oh, Frankie
A6        Robot Man
B1        It Would Still Be Worth It
B2        No One
B3        (He's My) Dreamboat
B4        Baby Roo
B5        He's Just A Scientist
B6        Happy New Year Baby
C1        Someone Else's Boy
C2        Gonna Git That Man
C3        Hollywood
C4        Thanks A Lot For Everything
C5        Whatever Happened To Rosemarie?
C6        Look At Him
D1        My Best Friend Barbara
D2        Tommy
D3        Looking For Love
D4        Don't Ever Leave Me
D5        No Better Off
D6        Waiting For You

(The back sleeve has writing on it referring to “Girl Talk” in case that gives someone a clue.)
